Shanghai X

Posted by DTW (Orlando, United States) on 12 April 2007 in Cityscape & Urban and Portfolio.

Shot of Nanjing Road which is famous for its shopping. I was in the JC Mandarin on my first trip to China for this one. If you look in the upper right corner you'll see a pointed building, that's the JW Marriott. The previous pictures that showed how large the Shanghai is were taken from that building.

Maybe it is just me but I look at cities like this and all I see is chaos. I would not want to live in such a cluttered city. I know it works for some people but wow I prefer peaceful surroundings. Great shot though!!

@Dawn Sutherland: Thanks! It does take some getting used to but after a while it's not bad. I agree it's not somewhere I would want to permanently live but for a short time it would be ok.
